Hello Friends! 8tracks gave its Android app a major lick of paint, the popular internet radio service has now added Chromecast support to the mix.
8tracks is not only visually appealing, but easy to use for even the novice app user. The use of the dark simple backgrounds and the subtle logo makes for a basic frame that is very easy on the eye. Aside from that, the icons and layout of the various screens are easily navigable. Any use of text or numbers is fairly minimal (apart from where user input takes over) and doesn’t overbear or detract from the point of the app; the music.
most part you want any music app to sit happily in the background while you continue with your chores. Most people have multiple windows/apps running in the background, and multi-tasking has become the norm. For those who are ‘technical-natives’, listening to music needs to take a backseat to work, facebook, twitter and email (not necessarily in order of priority). 8tracks’ way of continuously playing through similar mixes means less faffing around trying to choose what to play next.

NOW you can now beam your tunes from your phone directly to your TV, which should go down a treat at parties.While some music-streaming heavyweights such as Spotify have been slow to embrace Google’s HDMI dongle, the likes of Rdio and Deezer already support it. Still, it’s great to see 8tracks finally added to this list too.
